What happened in the Dungeon quickly spread to the ears of every Familia in Orario. And yet, the one responsible for all this walked hand in hand with his own goddess, returning quietly to their home.
The streets of Orario were still bustling with people. Humans weren’t the only ones—dw...

"Huh? A full-blown riot in the Dungeon?"
Eina looked at the Adventurer complaining at the Guild with a puzzled expression.
"Yeah, Miss Eina. You wouldn't believe it—this all started early in the morning. It felt like the whole Dungeon was unleashing a Monster Parade."

There was a faint bitterness in her chest—the sense that Hephaestus now shared a deeper understanding with Bell than she did. Hestia had never felt this kind of jealousy before, and it made her uncomfortable. Her eyes locked onto Hephaestus, and a strange emotion began to stir inside her.

"What exactly happened?"
A "Dungeon riot" is no small matter. There have been similar incidents in the past, but the most recent one I can recall was over a decade ago. Hephaestus remembers that day fairly well—it was when Zeus's Familia and Hera's Familia set out to slay the Black Dragon...

Sure enough, as long as he kept a low profile, Bell blended right into the crowd—just another quiet, unremarkable kid who wasn’t great at socializing.
Staying with the crowd, Bell successfully made it out of the Dungeon.

‘If it were the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, I wouldn’t be seeing it only after I attacked. And even then, I wouldn’t be seeing just one.’
After a brief analysis, Bell concluded that the white mark wasn’t a “death line.” It was something else—something he hadn’t consid...

After circling the first floor, the adventurers and supporters still hadn’t seen a single monster. It struck the adventurer as odd.
“Did someone already take care of all the goblins?”
The Dungeon was only just starting to become “lively,” and he was sure that normally no one...

“Zzzzt!”
A bolt of lightning streaked across the first floor of the Dungeon. As it passed, every Goblin in its path was instantly reduced to black ash, leaving behind only their Magic Stones and short swords as proof they’d ever existed.
“Clack, clack!”
Strange noises ...

The moment he heard the voice, Bell instinctively reached behind him to catch the goddess who had leapt onto his back. After being tackled like this dozens of times, his body reacted on its own. Though he felt the way he was holding her might be a bit impolite, since Goddess-sam...

Since the day he returned to the ruins of the church with the small black knife, Bell hadn't set foot in the Dungeon. He needed time for preparation, and to develop and study his new powers.

Bell stared at the short sword in disbelief. A weapon with both “Indestructibility” and “Growth”? Wasn’t that basically cheating? It didn’t even need maintenance—just using it would make it sharper. Wasn’t this practically the same as a “pen that never runs out of ink”?

With his shirt removed, Bell sat on the floor, back facing them, as Hestia gently let her blood drip onto his back. A pale, white light began to slowly take shape. She was updating Bell’s Falna and synchronizing him with the short sword—this would make Bell its sole wielder.
But midway ...

It took nearly another full day before Bell finally woke from his sleep.

The moment he opened his eyes, Bell let out a long breath—and immediately winced. A wave of foul air escaped his mouth, filling the room with an awful stench. Grimacing, he forced himself out of b...
